Zot: Book 1 (Zot!)

Rating:
Summary: Read This Book!
Review: If you are a comics aficionado , this book is a must read. Scott McCloud is one of the few creators of this generation who has not only demonstrated the depth that can be achieved in the comics medium, but has also made it accessible to all of us. The superhero plot may or may not grab you, but it's the story's characters and McCloud's storytelling style that will grab you and keep hold of you. If you're a fan of Mark Waid and Kurt Busiek, this work is well worth checking out. Even if you despise "superhero" comics, you might find yourself pleasantly surprised. After fourteen years, these stories still represent a "high water" mark in American comics.

Summary: Delving into normal lifes of the abnormal heroes
Review: Scott McCloud's Zot! is simply amazing. For those of us who actually have hope, it will not be wasted on this sci-fi but not far stretched sentimental story of a simple boy who overcomes all odds to reach something glorious in life. Not only is the storyline enjoyable, but the plot keeps you rolling with deep character involvement, and actually shows flaws in the characters, which keeps them all stronger each chapter. Very suspeneful with his mastery of simple actions and language. I loved it

Summary: ZOT, but where's the colour ?
Review: Zot's great, you won't be buying this book without knowing a little about this strangely wholesome upbeat & optimistic superhero. All the angst is supplied by jenny his self doubting human girlfriend, and even she's pretty cheerful most of the time. The book is a straightforward copilation of Zot issues 11-15 and 17-18, but unlike volume one this book is in black and white, so be warned, but I still enjoyed it.
